Patent EP-1021870-A2 (EP)
Inventor: WALLERIUS JOHN WALKER
IPC: H04J13/00
Filed: 1998-05-28
Abstract: A communication system having a plurality of forward channel communications and a plurality of corresponding reverse channel communications from and to a plurality of mobile users. A plurality of collectors are distributed at macro-diverse locations for receiving reverse channel signals from the users which are processed to yield one or more sequences of data bits as a burst and corresponding initial confidence metrics for each bit. The collectors forward these reverse channel signals including the data bits and corresponding processed confidence metrics to aggregators. The combining of multiple collector signals for the same user results in an output bit stream for the user with fewer bit errors. The system includes bandwidth control for minimizing backhaul bandwidth from collector to aggregator while maximizing signal quality.

Abstract: An embedded coding scheme is used to dynamically changes the size of
compressed images and as a result image quality according to the number of stored
pictures. As more images are captured, the image storage device makes room for
newly captured images by truncating existing compressed embedded coded bitstreams
of previously stored images. The embedded digital image storage device can thus
store a virtually unlimited number of images by dynamically trading-off between the
number of stored images and image quality.

Abstract: A flow regulating valve (100) for an air conditioning system is shown in
which a body member (104) is provided with a fixed passageway (104a) and a
variable passageway (104b) which results in regulating flow of refrigerant into
the evaporator of the air conditioning system. Under high ambient and low or
idle speeds, the system refrigerant pressure rises. This increases pressure in
the evaporator and an increase in the saturation temperature of refrigerant in the
evaporator. This increase in temperature is sensed by a helical thermostatic
metal element (110) which moves to rotate an inlet sleeve (112) having a web
(104c) formed between first and second windows (112a, 112b) to move into
alignment with the inlet port (104c) of passageway (104b) to increase restriction
to the flow of the refrigerant fluid through the valve thereby decreasing pressure
of the refrigerant entering the evaporator. Upon continued increase in ambient
temperature, the web continues to rotate bringing window (112b) into alignment
with the inlet (104c) to increase refrigerant flow to prevent excessive pressure
build-up in the compressor with resulting compressor cycling.

Abstract: A rotary knife incorporates the use of an electronically controlled, tuned
mass active damping system to control vibrations of the knife cylinder. The system
preferably uses one or more electromagnetic actuators to provide force on a tuned
mass which is mechanically coupled to the knife cylinder. Vibration sensors,
preferably accelerometers, are used to monitor vibrations of the respective knife
cylinders and tuned masses. A digital signal processor implementing a state space
control system controls the electromagnetic actuators to remove vibration energy from
the system. An active damping system in accordance with the invention is more
effective in removing vibration energy than passive systems, especially in heavy-duty
applications.

Abstract: A hybrid central office (24) for serving a plurality of subscriber lines
while serving as a virtual access tandem to a subnetwork of central offices
(26) having a connection to an ATM backbone network (22) is described.
The hybrid central office includes a computing module (40) having a
messaging interface to the ATM network, an inter-working trunk interface
(44) to the ATM network and a trunk connection (28) to the PSTN. The
hybrid central office serves as a tandem switch for other central offices
connected to the subnetwork. Other central offices are preferably
connected to the subnetwork by a signal large trunk group (50). All inter-office
call routing is therefore handled by the hybrid central office. The
hybrid central office also provides a gateway to the PSTN. Inter-office
calls originated and terminated within the subnetwork are set up by the
virtual access tandem but after call set up, the virtual access tandem is not
involved in the call. The advantage is the utilization of spare processing
capacity in a central office to off-load inter-office trunking congestion, as
well as a significant reduction in trunking maintenance costs.

length, which is determined from the average

Abstract: An organic waste decomposition system (10) and method is described having two reaction vessels (12, 14) in tandem, each using superheated steam augmented by oxygen for decomposing a wide variety of organic compounds to reduce both mass and volume. Decomposition takes place quickly when a steam/oxygen mixture is injected into a fluidized bed (50) of ceramic beads. The speed of the fluidizing gas mixture agitates the beads that then help to break up solid wastes, and the oxygen allows some oxidation to offset the thermal requirements of drying, pyrolysis, and steam reforming. Most of the pyrolysis takes place in the first stage, setting up the second stage for completion of pyrolysis and adjustment or gasification of the waste form using co-reactants to change the oxidation state of inorganics and using temperature to partition metallic wastes.
